Christianity Explored is an informal 7-week course for people who'd like to investigate Christianity, or just brush up on the basics. Looking at Mark's gospel, it explores who Jesus is, why he came, and what it means to follow him. Our next course begins on Wednesday 13th June at 8pm.

On Easter Sunday 2012 we received new Bibles into St Thomas'. Every church of course needs Bibles so this might not sound like such a big thing. However, the new church Bibles also marked a change of translation from the New International Version (NIV) which has been used for many years, to the English Standard Version (ESV). The ESV was first published in 2001 so is a very up to date translation. It is marked by beauty of language, accuracy of translation and wealth of available resources. It is an excellent choice for our next phase of life as a contemporary and evangelical church. Read on to find out more about why we've bought new Bibles and why we chose the ESV.

Happy Easter! Christ is Risen!

Today we celebrate the victory Jesus won over death when he rose from the dead three days after being crucified and buried. Three days He was dead, but death could not hold Him because He is God and Lord of all.

Come and celebrate with us the wonderful new life Jesus offers each of us with our Family Communion Service at 10.30am today.

Reading the Bible

The Bible is the most printed and sold book in the world. It is also perhaps the most unread, misunderstood and misquoted...

A,B,C of Jesus

A

Almighty - Jesus is God Almighty, creator of the universe. He's not just some nice bloke from ancient Israel.

B

Baby - He gave up His place in heaven to become a tiny baby and grow into a normal man. God became one of us, to take our place, walk in our shoes and pay the price of our sin.

C

Christ - The greek word for Saviour - Jesus came to save us from ourselves, from our sin, and bring us back into the loving embrace of God.
